I've had so many services over the past 25 years or so, at this point I don't do any more than I have to.  I like slack because it's business partners and customers mostly so professional, and it's pretty universal.  I ran discord for a bit last year for a game I was playing, but that's about it.  I still use gvoice/hangouts for all my sms, signal atop that, and that's about it.

As Hans said, Plug does have IRC, but of all things IRC is one thing I've never gotten into using after all these years, or more never had a reason to continue using.  Perhaps less is more and should though.

I’d be willing to setup a rocket chat, for example, but I don’t know what that would take for our audience, not had anyone said anything about wanting one.
Nobody expressing interest may also be why it never happened, though.

Not sure how many folks are actually joined to PLUG offer that to everyone (that would actually participate), but I'd be interested in joining it if one existed with the folks that normally participated here.
